The Atlanta Braves will attempt to replace 3B Chipper Jones either with a third baseman or with a left fielder if they move OF Martin Prado to third base. The other priority for the club is to re-sign or replace OF Michael Bourn. "We've got to determine what we do in center field, and that kind of couples with leadoff," Braves general manager Frank Wren said. "And then how we replace Chipper. And beyond that, our club's pretty solid."

Atlanta Braves 3B Chipper Jones now heads into retirement after his team lost the first-ever one-game elimination Wild Card game against the St. Louis Cardinals Friday, Oct. 5. Jones made an errant throw in a three-run fourth inning. He was hitless in his first four at-bats before legging out an infield single in his final career at-bat in the ninth inning.
